the half moon lingers
on the long edge of deep night
silence drips with dawn
and we draw new constellations
to remember who we are
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry #bspp58 
days lost to the wind
rain dotting upon windows
robins discussing
whether it is Wednesday, or—
it could be Thursday, and—
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
late blooming flowers
under fog spin of snow clouds
while aspens stay green
and we walk by the wild stream
wearing hearts upon our sleeves
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
stars hidden from view
thunder in the far distance
clouds echo with rain
and we dwell safely at home
waiting for the sun to shine
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry #bspp57 
starling postulates
among woods fast turning gold
time flies and flutters
floats upon sketches of dreams
graphite lines to colour in
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
chattering chiffchaff
and the sycamores whisper
about secret joys
we harbour in deep pockets
of our autumn coats
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
soft light diffuses
through cobwebbed pasts, liminal
time, a cold cascade
waits upon a beach of sand
for message in a bottle
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
a ghost moon lingers
the dust of the day settles
in holding pattern
time, an unknown river — still
frozen in summertime
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
morning flows from night
seeking solace under stars
a year's worth of dreams
lost selves wandering, waiting
in a maze of empty rooms
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
the last bellflower
to which a blackbird would sing
as she passes by
weaving new days to remember
time flows again through the chalk
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry #bspp57 
treasures like silver
carved into a darkened sky
a shy moon, resting
telling stories in silence
that I am because you are
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry #bspp57 
small seeds of new dreams
hide among fade of flowers
bide their time, and wait
for memories in our bones
to wake and hold our hands
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry #bspp57 
songs of yesterdays
dance on today's autumn breeze
that tomorrow comes
love lingering upon our lips
kindling the fire within
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
where two branches cross
a dove perches, wondering
what the day might bring
#haiku #micropoetry 
slow shadowless days
and silent nights without fear
we know who we are
the memories in our bodies
distilled from yesterday's stars
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
memories flicker
like fireflies in the dusk
and we reminisce
in silence of empty rooms
hearts beating in the dark
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
shadows sharp like teeth
in the fade of purple blooms
searching for silence
#haiku #micropoetry 
clouds like eiderdown
raindrops on strawberries, sweet
dreams slowly unfold
we slumber, smiles on our faces
while gods remain asleep
#haiku #tanka #senryū #micropoetry 
dawn paints in soft gold
breeze dancing upon river
we weave tender dreams
while the earth carries promises
with fire in our hearts
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
so soon, the summer
fades without a sound, chiming
within beating hearts
the dance of our words, telling
stories that never end
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
morning light scuttles
like songs in sycamore leaves
gentle hum of joy
#haiku #micropoetry 
raindrops upon leaves
pearls skirting along edges
repeating patterns
twirling in perpetual dance
and your hands find mine
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
in the early hour
tender words whispered in dreams
a restful silence
between worlds of shadow and light
before dawn forgets the night
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
cloud over chalk hills
a robin declares the day
a ripple over water
still under a watchful sun
silent until season's end
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
a lavender dawn
the calm call of woodpigeons
gathers dreams on trees
silence flutters between whispers
of words we have yet to say
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
and we slow down time
breath by breath, each step a dance
each flower, a gaze
a sanctuary in a garden
revelling in the now
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
the blue tit recounts
memories of days like these
but no one listens
to the sweet song of sunrise
until time takes a breath
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry
